Tonight’s performance of An Officer and a Gentleman at the Regent Theatre in Ipswich was cancelled after a cast member suffered a fall during the show.

The cast member reportedly suffered the injury during the first half an hour of the performance and was rushed to hospital with a possible dislocated ankle.

As they were a key member of the cast, the producers of the musical decided the show could not go on.

A spokesman for the Regent Theatre said: “We apologise for the inconvenience to customers but we all wish the injured cast member a speedy recovery. “Any customers can either get a full refund or a ticket for later in the week.”

Due to cast injury, tonight's performance of An Officer and a Gentleman has regrettably had to be cancelled.

Customers with tickets for tonight can re-schedule for later this week, or get a full refund by contacting the box office tomorrow from 9:30am - 01473 433100
